About the event

Kantha sewing originated in the West Bengal region of India and is now popular all over the world. This form of quilting comes from rural India, where resources  were few, but imagination and skills were in abundance. Kantha is the simplest of sewing techniques which provides a lot of scope for exploration, creativity and expression. Learn new ways of using fabric scraps combined with embroidery to make your own composition. Block printed fabrics and embroidery threads will be supplied to create a fabric collage which can be converted into a purse, applique, centrepiece of a quilt or framed to hang on the wall.

No sewing experience required.
